Young children can use their subjective straight-ahead to remap visuo-motor alterations

Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Davide Esposito

Young children and adults process spatial information differently: the former use their bodies as primary reference, while adults seem capable of using abstract frames. The transition is estimated to occur between the 6th and the 12th year of age. The mech ...

Immersive virtual reality interferes with default head-trunk coordination strategies in young children

Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Silvestro Micera

The acquisition of postural control is an elaborate process, which relies on the balanced integration of multisensory inputs. Current models suggest that young children rely on an 'en-block' control of their upper body before sequentially acquiring a segme ...

Motor improvement estimation and task adaptation for personalized robot-aided therapy: a feasibility study

Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Nawal Noëlle Kinany, Elvira Pirondini, Silvestro Micera, Martina Coscia, Christian Giang, Camilla Pierella

Background In the past years, robotic systems have become increasingly popular in upper limb rehabilitation. Nevertheless, clinical studies have so far not been able to confirm superior efficacy of robotic therapy over conventional methods. The personaliza ...

A multimodal approach to capture post-stroke temporal dynamics of recovery

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Nawal Noëlle Kinany, Elvira Pirondini, Silvestro Micera, Martina Coscia, Christian Giang, Camilla Pierella

Objective.Several training programs have been developed in the past to restore motor functions after stroke. Their efficacy strongly relies on the possibility to assess individual levels of impairment and recovery rate. However, commonly used clinical scal ...

Teleoperation with a wearable sensor system

Dario Floreano, David Atienza Alonso, Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Alexandre Thierry Cherpillod, Fabio Isidoro Tiberio Dell'Agnola, Silvestro Micera, Martina Coscia, Stefano Mintchev, Fiorenzo Artoni

A method for remotely controlling an operated unmanned object, comprises defining of a set of control movements of an operator; selecting of minimal necessary signals to reliably acquire the operator's control movements; defining of a mapping of the contro ...

Body-machine interfaces for non-homologous human-machine interactions

Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt

Virtual reality (VR), the interactive experience of being immersed in a simulated environment, has seen a tremendous development in the last years. Numerous applications came into being, ranging from flight simulators through a virtual ascent of Mount Ever ...

Data-driven body–machine interface for the accurate control of drones

Dario Floreano, Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Alexandre Thierry Cherpillod, Silvestro Micera, Martina Coscia, Stefano Mintchev, Fiorenzo Artoni

The teleoperation of nonhumanoid robots is often a demanding task, as most current control interfaces rely on mappings between the operator’s and the robot’s actions, which are determined by the design and characteristics of the interface, and may therefor ...

Accurate Internal-External Rotation Measurement in Total Knee Prostheses: a magnetic solution

Kamiar Aminian, Jenifer Cléa Miehlbradt, Arash Arami

In this work we tackled the problem of accurate measurement of internal–external (IE) rotations in the prosthetic knee. We presented a magnetic measurement system to be implanted in the knee prostheses in order to measure IE without soft tissue artifacts. ...
